Trendy Bakers Twine~North Pole Treat Bag

Hello all! Today I am sharing another Christmas in July post for the Trendy Twine blog. This time I went with a rustic Christmas vibe for a treat bag. Holly Berry Trendy Twine is the perfect color combo for that look!
I started with a Kraft Chevron Treat Bag and stamped a sentiment from the APB Merry & Bright stamp set in SB.com Cardinal Red ink. I then added treats to the bag, but you can also fill these bags with cookies, candy, nail polish, a matchbox car, a toy blind bag, small cosmetics, gift card, etc. The possiblities for this kind of gift wrapping are endless! Once I folded the flap over, I wrapped Holly Berry Trendy Twine around it and tied it in a bow. I then added a North Pole Trading Company No. 2 Retro Tag that I had inked with brown around the edges to make it more vintage looking (The North Pole Trading Company Vintage Inspired Tag would have also been a great pick for this project!) I finished it off with a few O Christmas Tree sequins adhered with mini Glue Dots. 

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

You can find all kinds of Christmas themed Trendy Twine samplers on sale this month, including the Christmas Sampler, which includes the Holly Berry twist that I used on today's project.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~Christmas Ornament Card

Hello all! I am on the Trendy Twine blog today with a new card. We are having a Christmas in July theme this month, and I was thrilled to break out my Christmas supplies and have some fun!
The background paper and fussy cut ornament were from The Paper Studio's Star of Bethlehem paper pad. The dark blue cardstock was embossed with a Kaisercraft Tiles embossing folder. After adhering the ornament with foam tape, I added Peppermint Icicle Trendy Twine as a hanger and double bow for it. The sentiment was stamped using the APB Merry Christmas stamp set,VersaFine Clair Twilight ink, and heat embossed with Wow! Clear Sparkle embossing powder. I wrapped Peppermint Icicle Trendy Twine around that strip of paper two time, then popped it up with foam tape. The finishing touch was a trio of Peppermint Icicle Sequins adhered with Bearly Art precision glue.

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:
